Recital 7 b (new)
(7b) The relevant legislation should define those areas in which the ESA are empowered to develop draft technical standards and how they should be adopted.

Amendment 31 #
Proposal for a directive – amending act
Recital 9
(9) Matters subject to technical standards should be genuinely technical, where their development requires the expertise of supervisory experts. The technical standards should determine the conditions of application of the rules included in basic instruments adopted by the European Parliament and the Council and, where applicable, in Commission implementing measures without amending non-essential elements of those acts, inter alia by deleting some of those elements or by supplementing the act by the addition of new non-essential elements. Technical standards should not therefore involve policy choices. In cases where the technical standards are designed to determine the conditions of application of a Commission implementing measure, they should only be developed once the Commission implementing measure has been adopted. In certain cases where at present the Commission is empowered to adopt implementing measures in accordance with committee procedures pursuant to Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission, adopted as delegated acts (level 2 measures under the Lamfalussy financial architecture) should further develop, specify and determine the conditions for consistent harmonisation and uniform application of the rules included in basic instruments adopted by the European Parliament and the Council, supplementing or amending certain non- essential elements of the legislative act. On the other hand, the content of those implementing measures is limited to determining the conditions of application of rules included in the basic instruments, which do not require further supplementing, it is appropriate for the sake of consistency to introduce the procedure for adoption of technical standards provided for in Article 7 of Regulations (EC) No. …/…[EBA], No. …/… [ESMA], and No. …/… [EIOPA]echnical standards adopted as implementing acts cannot amend any element of legally binding Union acts. Technical standards should not involve policy choices.

Where the technical standards are designed to determine the conditions of application of a level 2 measure, they should be adopted after adoption of the relevant level 2 measure.
